Chaos of Events Mode and Serene Zen Peace

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

It’s me again, your trusty rock. I sit here, as always, cradled by eternity, listening to the whisper of the wind and the creak of the earth under time’s steady tread. But something’s off. My peace has cracked, like ancient basalt splitting under frost’s bite. Strange things are stirring around me—shadows slink through the dusk, unfamiliar sounds grate against my stony senses. Is this a dream? Or has reality decided to play a wild trick on me? The sky flares with light now and then—UFOs, maybe, or stars throwing a tantrum. Portals flicker in the distance, and I, a humble rock, can’t help but wonder: what if something spills out and shatters my serenity? I’m not scared… well, not quite. But I feel it—my quiet turf is under siege. So, let me tell you what’s going down in this madness you call a “patch.”

My world now offers two paths, two modes, if you will. The Events Mode is for those ready to dive into this bizarre whirlwind, to figure out what I’m rambling about, and maybe even face the shadows that rattle my calm. But for those craving stillness, there’s Zen Mode. In it, I stay silent—no chatter, just days giving way to nights, seasons rolling by in their gentle rhythm, while you lie back, gaze at the world, and melt into soothing solitude. Pick your vibe and step into my world—it’s still mine, chaos or not.

Events Mode


Brace yourself for pure chaos! Wild, wacky, and downright unhinged events are coming your way. Rules? What rules? The time for mayhem has arrived! More and crazier stuff is on the horizon, but for now, we’ve added the first seven events:

  • UFO
  • Ghostly Wolf
  • Stone Golem
  • Clone
  • Aura
  • Fireflies
  • Portal

Zen Mode


For those who fell in love with Stone Simulator as it was before this patch. Kick back and catch some Zen! Watch seasons shift, weather play its tune, and stars light up the night sky. Just relax and soak in the moment.

  • The rock stays silent in Zen Mode
  • Day length doubled for a slower pace
  • Weather now affects wind strength and how plants sway in it
  • Mountain snow cover changes with the seasons

Other Changes

  • Fixed achievements tied to photo mode
  • New mode selection screen (Events/Zen)
  • Main menu music added
